2020 Conference

The topic for our 2020 virtual conference is ‘responding to the COVID-19 challenge’.

Solutions to the current challenge will develop over time and therefore we would like to make 3 virtual deposits, each followed by twitter discussion, using the following timelines and themes:

Identifying the problems, planning and quick wins

Submission deadline 29th Mayextended to 12th June

Use this submission to tell us about the specific challenges you have
faced in delivering your outreach provision. Share you plans for solutions and any
quick wins you have been able to implement.

Adapting face-to-face provision

Submission
deadline 29th June

Use
this submission to inform our community about the process of adapting your
‘normal’ outreach. For example, have you modified individual activities or
whole events to deliver remotely?

Evaluation of new / adapted provision

Submission
deadline 29th July

Use
this submission to report on the impact of your new or adapted outreach, based
on evaluation data you have collected, or submit a reflection on the changes
from your practitioner perspective. If your UG or PG students have been involved,
you may wish to collaborate with them on a submission.

Submission format

For
each theme we would like to request virtual submissions, between 5 and 10
minutes in length, using any media you choose converted and uploaded to
YouTube.
